Fuzzy north face vs. original north face

Which do you prefer? Many people have often questioned: which one should I buy? If you are in this situation and need help, this article will do the trick. In this article there will be pros and cons of both the fuzzy and the original North Face.
The original North Face has the regular material then the wind breaker material. The pros of these are that they: keep you really warm, they don’t wear out really easy, they will last all winter long. The cons of this one is: they collect everything they touch such as fuzz, they also they don’t remain soft for a long time.
The fuzzy North Face has a more furry material. The pros of these are that they are furry on the outside and on the inside. They also keep you really, really warm. The cons of these are is that when you wash them the fuzzy material doesn’t stay fuzzy. Another con is that they are some-what thin so when it is extremely cold outside then they wont keep you as warm as you would like.

Sperry’s vs. Wallabee’s


What is so great about these two shoes? I went around the school asking which students preferred which shoe. The results didn’t vary. Most of the people I asked said Sperry’s. Everybody I questioned said that Sperry boat shoes were more comfortable than the Wallabee’s. Although Wallabee’s have a cushioned bottom, Sperry’s still out-beat them.


There are pro’s and con’s with Sperry’s. Some good things about Sperry Boat Shoes are that they fit your feet well. You can find almost every size in this shoe, and most likely to find the pair that fits your feet. They also are very comfortable! They are waterproof, and can dry fast. You can also keep them cleaned well, and they can look brand new. Some con’s about Sperry’s are that when you first get your shoes, the shoelaces are very short, and are hard to keep tied. After you have wear them for a while, you break into them, and you stretch the shoelaces. There is not that many con’s about Sperry’s.


There are also pro’s and con’s with Wallabee’s. Just because people didn’t say they liked Wallabee’s better, the shoe is still good. Some pro’s about Wallabee’s are they can be dress shoes, or school shoes. They go with almost anything. They are some-what comfortable. They also have a cushioned made into the bottom of the shoe. They also have con’s for Wallabee’s. They stain easily, and you cannot get them wet. You also trip a lot. Also, after you wear them for awhile, the bottoms tend to rip off.

Sperry’s and Wallabee’s are both great shoes! Even though some prefer one or the other, you can never go wrong with this pair. Which do you prefer?




Accessories: What Is In

Girls:
Clothes and shoes aren’t the only thing people wear. Accessories are really big now, too. Last year a lot of the girls were wearing long beads and wide headbands. This year those are still in but ribbons in their hair, and huge purses. Most girls are wearing ribbons or bows that match their outfit. They also carry oversize purses.


The bows you can buy at a lot of places. You can mostly buy them at craft stores. You can go and pick out your color ribbon them take them to the cash register. They will measure the length and then cut it. You can buy the purses almost anywhere. If you are looking for the huge ones then try these stores: Rue 21, Handbag Studio, Accessory Heaven, and all of the clothing stores and accessories stores.


You can also make your own ribbons. Let’s say you won’t a ribbon that has a lot of different colors. Then you could go out and buy all the colors ribbons you won’t and sew or glue them together. You can also add things to them, like sparkles, glitter, or stickers. Same with the purses. You can make pockets and sew them on. You can also get your name monogrammed on them. This cost money though. There are so many ways to create fashion, so go out there and try! =]] By Emilee Hughes

TOO MANY CLOTHES, AND NO PLACE TO GO!?!?
Do you have too many clothes?!?! Then I know how to solve that problem. Did you know that there are stores that you can sell your own clothes to? When you sell your clothes most the time it goes to a good cause. Some stores hold special sales just for stuff like that. Such as when Katrina hit, many stores were having sales and asking for donations.

If you would like to sell your clothes then you can try out some of these stores. Plato’s closet and the thrift store. At Plato’s Closet you can bring some of your own clothes that have no stains and have no holes. Then you will give them to the lady and she will tell you which ones they will accept. They must be in Junior sizes. Once you sell those clothes you can go spend your new money. Same with the thrift store only this time you can sell anything. Clothes make the most though. If you would also like some really expensive shoes for a low price, the thrift store will have them. Most of these stores sell name brands for cheap prices.

If you would like to just donate some jeans then you need to go to Aeropostale. They are holding this thing called Teens for Jeans. It is where you bring a pair of gently worn jeans and give them to the store clerk. She will then give you a 20% discount on a pair of their jeans. All of the jeans you donate go to teens living on the streets. Most teens in America run away from home and have no clothes. Areopostale is trying to change this. So go out there and donate! - EMILEE HUGHES

FIND OUT YOUR LATEST TRENDS! WHICH TREND ARE YOU?
Most of the girls shop at American Eagle, Aeropostale, Abercrombie, Limited Too, Hollister, Wet Seal, Forever 21, Rue21, Victoria's Secret, PINK, and Bebe. These are all pretty famous stores that girls like to shop at. Most of them right now are shoping at Wet Seal. Wet seal has a lot of cute clothes inclueding comfertable, dressy, or just nice. They have a lot of medium dresses that go with leggings and flats. All these stores carry cute clothes that are in style.


Girls and boys have brought Wallabee's and Spearry Boat Shoes back in style. If you walk around the school, most of them are wearing one of those. Girls also have brought ballet flats in style. For these, you would usually wear a medium cut dress with leggings, and flats. They make very cute outfits! You also can wear flats with blue jeans and a top. For church girls are wearing dressy black pants with black boots. They go good with these. For the new style if you are wondering though, the trend for shoes is UGGS. They are flat snow boots that you put over your pants legs. They are cute. Many girls are now wearing these!

For the perfume, girls really don't mind who's wearing what. They basically just buy the ones they like to smell. My favorite perfume is by PINK [Victoria's Secret]. It smells really good. Also, I like Fantasy and Curious by Brittany Spears. Others like Hollister and American Eagle. More than likely, you will see a perfume at every girl store. They all smell good!

WANT TO FEEL GOOD, SMELL GOOD, AND WALK GOOD?
Most of the boys shop at American Eagle, Abercrombie, Aeropostale, and Hollister. The also shop at Parisians in the Polo brand. Polo is a very nice brand of clothes. They sell all kind of pants inclueding: Cacky, Dressy, Black, etc. They also have cute shirts. They sell collor shirts that are usually short sleeves. There are rarely long sleeves shirts. Boys in middle school haven't really changed around in their trends.


Almost all of the middle school boys are wearing Wallabee's or Boat shoes. These shoes have came back in style this year. The girls and boys are seen wearing them! Boys also wear tennis shoes as usual, and now they are wearing Heely's! Heely's are shoes that have a wheel in the heel of the shoe. You can either skate or walk in them. School's prefer not for them to wear the heely's to school because they don't want any injuries, so the guys take the wheel's out for school. There is more guy shoes they wear. These are just the basics.


Last, boys have started wearing cologne! Most of them wear Axe. It has a great scent that attracts people. They also have been wearing Polo black and/or blue. This one is my absolute favorite cologne that boys wear! It attracts me, and when someone has is on, i automaticaly know its Polo. They also have store colognes like Hollister. They have a great scent to there guy colognes. There is also many more cologne's than just these four though.
